MARTINEZ — Jury deliberations will begin Thursday at the murder trial for a pair of cousins charged with killing a 20-year-old Vallejo resident on the streets of Richmond in 2008.

The prosecution is asking for a first-degree murder verdict against Chad Deshawn Walker and Deshane Earl Warren, both 23-year-old Richmond residents, arguing they planned the shooting that killed 20-year-old Davontae Wesley on May 24, 2008 near 34th Street and Nevin Avenue. Walker waited in a car while Warren shot Wesley 16 times, prosecutor Jason Peck said during closing arguments Wednesday.

Defense attorneys contend the cousins, who had by-and-large avoided trouble before this, were looking to buy marijuana that day. Warren was scared of Wesley and shot him in self defense, thinking Welsey was reaching for a gun when he was in fact reaching for a cell phone, defense attorneys said.
